Roll Call ran full-speed ahead with this headline, but read below and youíll see this isnít quite etched in stone. Yet. Late Thursday evening approaching a holiday weekend seems like a strange time to drop news like this, but then again it is Fourth of July weekend. What better timing?

I love Thad McCotter. Heís a solid conservative, kills on Red Eye, and he even gets the Led out on the House floor. Thatís a pretty cool package.

The Michigan Republican will announce his campaign in his home state, making him the third House Member to enter the race. Reps. Michele Bachmann (Minn.) and Ron Paul (Texas) have also launched campaigns.

McCotter spokeswoman Michaela Huntley told the Detroit News that the lawmaker had made a decision about whether to run, but she declined to disclose his plans.

I can totally overlook his lack of compelling nature for the playing guitar and dry wit. He's like Gary Sinise. But alot less handsome.
